Chapter 135: Kong Getting Beaten Down

'Boom!!!'

A thunderous roar filled the air.

Dust and smoke billowed up in thick clouds. The entire island trembled as if in pain, shaking incessantly. This was the same 'Elbaf Spear: Mighty Nation.' However, the power unleashed by El at full strength was leagues beyond what Linlin had previously demonstrated with this attack.

Already struggling to keep up with El, the Lunarian powerhouse operating at full force, Kong found himself at a severe disadvantage, especially with Linlin's interference.

A massive shockwave, at least thirty-four meters in diameter, tore through the island, carving a staggering trench and drawing in a surge of seawater. The unstoppable wave continued, crashing toward the ocean, sending chills down the spine.

'Whoosh… whoosh...'

The air rippled, and smoke and dust surged forward. A battered and bruised figure was flung violently away, leaving deep gouges in the ground before finally colliding hard with a mountain.

"Mighty Nation!!"

However—

This was far from over. It was merely the beginning.

Before Kong could catch his breath—

Linlin let out a sinister laugh, brandishing her mighty blade, Napoleon. Without hesitation, she locked onto the dust-filled ruins and swung fiercely.

'Crack—' A powerful shockwave from her sword slashed through the air, striking the mountain directly.

'Boom… boom...'

Within the dust-covered ruins, blood trickled from the corner of Kong's mouth as he staggered out in a disheveled state, barely escaping in time.

"Damn it…" he muttered, just narrowly evading disaster.

But El had already set his sights on him.

"Silver Reincarnation Burst!"

El's expression was cold; he had no intention of giving Kong a moment to breathe. His body sparked with electricity, the air thick with ominous energy as his four wings spread wide.

'Woohoo~~~ woohoo~~~' A monstrous gust transformed into a terrifying tornado, crackling with relentless lightning and filled with an overwhelming aura of destruction.

The wind howled like the end of days, fierce gusts and thunder entwining in a silver storm of unmatched intensity. It raged forward.

Unstoppable.

'Boom… boom…'

Rocks and vegetation that blocked its path—

Were instantly torn apart, shredded, and pulverized by the endless blades of wind.

Caught in the massive tornado, the storm advanced relentlessly toward the horror-stricken Kong.

"King Kong Clash!!" Refusing to go down without a fight, Kong roared and threw his fist forward with all his might. His massive fist, surrounded by intense Armament Haki and Conqueror's Haki, charged forward.

'Boom!!!'

A deafening explosion.

The clash was beyond imagination. Accompanied by fierce storms, dazzling light and energy burst from the impact zone.

'Woohoo…'

No one knew how much time passed.

The scene resembled the aftermath of a hurricane. The ground lay in ruins, fractured with countless cracks—a sight that would leave anyone speechless.

'Ahh…'

Kong exhaled deeply, not even bothering to wipe the blood from his mouth. Standing tall, he maintained a dignified stance, his fists clenched, nerves on edge, ready for anything.

"What is that!?"

Suddenly—

His face twisted in shock. A chill ran down his spine. Without hesitation, he bolted away at an astonishing speed.

"Do you think you can escape?"

"Ma-ma-ma-ma, Elbaf Spear—"

Because El and Linlin were now standing side by side. Two monstrous beings of immense strength had locked their sights on this Navy Admiral, each raising their weapon.

An overwhelming aura radiated from them, climbing ever higher. Both emitted an aura that sent shivers down one's spine.

"Hakoku Sovereignty!"

In an instant—

The razor-sharp greatsword.

The massive halberd with unstoppable force.

Both slashed through the atmosphere with relentless fury.

'Whoosh—whoosh—' The sharp sound of splitting air roared on. The very air seemed to twist and collapse.

'Boom-boom-boom…' An enormous, terrifying shockwave rolled forward, crushing everything in its path toward the fleeing Kong. It was like an unstoppable tidal wave, brimming with uncontainable momentum.

"King Kong Chariot!!!"

With no chance to evade, Kong let out a frenzied scream. Lightning flared around him as he swung his fists, summoning every ounce of his strength to defend.

'Boom—boom—'

The island shook violently, groaning under the strain. A stretch of ground several kilometers long and hundreds of meters wide was leveled completely. A portion of the coastline was ruthlessly erased. The waves surged, the restless sea now marked by a massive trench—a breathtaking sight.

"Ugh… cough, cough…"

In the midst of the shattered ruins—

A blood-soaked figure knelt on one knee, blood trickling steadily from his lips. The blow had been terrifyingly powerful; if not for his Mythical Zoan, King Kong Form, with its inherent indestructibility, combined with the Conqueror's Haki defense he had mustered—

Even so, he had been gravely wounded, the impact intense.

"Ma-ma-ma-ma~, Night Demon Assault!!"

Linlin's face twisted with malice. She raised her blade, blood-red energy swirling around it, and slashed down fiercely.

'Crack—' A dazzling, giant blood-red slash tore through the air.

"Storm Leg: Gale Sever!!" Kong burst into action, his right leg moving like lightning, delivering a powerful kick—a massive light green slash collided violently with the blood-red attack.

'Boom… boom…'

The explosive clash echoed. A powerful wind pressure surged.

But in the next moment, countless vines burst from the ground. Rapidly transforming into towering trees and enormous vines, they seemed almost sentient, reaching directly for the horrified Kong.

'Bang… bang…' Kong ran desperately, moving swiftly. He tore through and sliced the relentless vines and trees. But they seemed endless, constantly surrounding him.

Meanwhile, the ruthless El resumed his fierce offensive, raising his halberd, flashing with electricity and wrapped in potent Conqueror's Haki. He swung it down forcefully.

"I want to see how long you can last!"

"Mighty Nation!!!"

'Crack—'

The piercing sound of the blade cutting through the air filled the sky. A massive cylindrical shockwave of sword energy tore through the atmosphere, blasting toward Kong.

'Boom… boom…'

"Ma-ma-ma-ma, these Mythical Zoan abilities are quite resilient…"

Having barely escaped El's onslaught, Kong hadn't even caught his breath. And then—

Facing him was Linlin, who had regained her energy and unleashed another attack.

"Mighty Nation!!!"

"King Kong Clash!!!" Realizing he couldn't dodge, Kong's expression shifted. He swung his fist fiercely, enveloped in powerful Conqueror's Haki, meeting the attack head-on.

'Boom… boom!!!'

Another resounding clash.

In an instant, El's terrifying figure struck like lightning. His enormous spear cleaved through the air, slashing horizontally.

'Clang—'

Sparks flew. The deafening clash of metal reverberated. Kong's seemingly indestructible arms, wrapped in advanced Conqueror's Haki, barely managed to block the strike.

"What!?" But the enormous force sent Kong reeling, his face twisted in shock. His arms felt numb, nearly on the verge of breaking.

Already severely injured, he couldn't hold back a mouthful of blood. His battered body flew back like a cannonball.

"Storm Gale!!!"

'Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh—'

With a sharp beat of his massive wings, El sent out a powerful gust.

'Crack… crack…' Countless blades of wind hurtled toward Kong, who had no time to steady himself, bombarding him relentlessly.

His pupils widened in fear.

'Boom… boom…'

'Ahhh…'
